Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 44: Bamboo Leaf Green Also Has a Grumpy Mood When Waking Up
Li Xiang agreed and asked the elders to tell everyone to prepare the first batch of winter bamboo shoots, but there was one thing: ensure the quality and do not sell inferior products as good ones, which would ruin the reputation.

Of course, he would also check when the winter bamboo shoots were transported over.

However, after making such "grand statements", Li Xiang felt quite nervous.

He only has about 12 fans now, although the number is still growing slowly. However, there are households in the village now. On average, each household must have kilograms of winter bamboo shoots, which adds up to more than kilograms. If he can't sell them, it would be too...

However, Li Xiang felt that he should be more optimistic. As long as he tried his best, he would have a clear conscience. If he couldn't sell all the products, it was because he was not strong enough. He would just have to keep working hard.

Moreover, this kind of assistance is only as much as possible. He only said he would help sell, but did not guarantee how much would be sold.

Li Xiang continued to dig winter bamboo shoots. He couldn't help others sell all of them and not sell any of them himself, right?
Winter bamboo shoots are usually dug in November every year, and will not affect the growth of bamboo before the winter solstice. Last time, Li Xiang had already collected video materials for digging winter bamboo shoots, edited them and posted them on his social media account. This time, he will do a live broadcast of digging bamboo shoots.

It can also be regarded as a way to accumulate popularity in advance for selling bamboo shoots online.

He carried a bamboo basket on his back, held a mobile phone holder in one hand and a hoe in the other, and was digging while broadcasting live. Then everyone noticed a very magical scene: Li Xiang almost always found the right fish every time he dug.

Every time the hoe was used to probe and dig a few times, a fat winter bamboo shoot would appear.

I have never seen him "leave nothing".

Fans commented: "Is this true? Did you bury it beforehand?"

Someone refuted Li Xiang's claim: "Are you kidding me? You can be buried under bamboo roots and still be connected?"

After all, the last step in digging winter bamboo shoots is to cut them.

The bamboo shoots grow on the roots of bamboo. We have seen more than once that Li Xiang would clean the soil around the bamboo shoots first, and then gently tap the bamboo roots with a hoe, and the bamboo shoots would be "cut" off.

His movements are clean and neat, which can be described as "fast, accurate and ruthless". He neither damages the bamboo roots nor rots the winter bamboo shoots, giving people an artistic enjoyment.

Little did people know that Li Xiang incorporated techniques from physical arts into the performance, combining both hardness and softness, which is why it has a sense of beauty.

Li Xiang has always combined breathing techniques and physical skills when working. After these days of farm work practice, he increasingly feels that the inheritance he received came from a "farming predecessor."

The effect of practicing is very good when farming, but it is slightly worse when practicing seriously at other times.

The fan responded: "I was just joking, why are you taking it so seriously?"

One fan said with emotion: "I also went up the mountain with my friends last year. Damn, we searched for a long time, was exhausted, and finally returned empty-handed. Brother Xiang's skills are simply perfect. I admire him."

Li Xiang laughed and taught everyone some techniques while digging.

"I'll show you a trick called stepping on the mud to find bamboo shoots."

"Don't look at me walking slowly and aimlessly in the bamboo forest. In fact, every time I take a step, I am secretly probing the mud to see if there are any bamboo shoots underneath. I will know when I put my foot down. If there are bamboo shoots, I will stop. If not, I will just walk on."

Fans were amazed: "There is also this magical move?"

"Why do I feel like this is similar to tomb robbing? Is there a formula?"

"Brother Xiang, pass the ball quickly, pass the ball quickly, I want to learn!"

Suddenly, Li Xiang stopped and said, "There must be a lot of bamboo shoots in this place."

"Dig quickly, dig quickly, let us verify it."

"Brother Xiang, if not, you'd be in trouble, haha. Don't be so sure."

"Brother Xiang, why don't you dig yet? Are you scared?"

Li Xiang hesitated for a moment, and finally told the truth: "I didn't do it because I was worried there were snakes down there. There are probably snakes in this place."

"There's a snake? What the hell?"

"At this time of year, snakes should all be hibernating, right?"

"Oh my god, Brother Xiang, are you saying that there are snakes hibernating down here? Can you tell for sure?"

Everyone was skeptical. Li Xiang said there were bamboo shoots underneath. Based on his previous record of digging one bamboo shoot with one hoe, everyone believed him. Perhaps it was a bamboo shoot digging technique passed down from the ancestors of rural bamboo shoot diggers. However, if you said there were snakes hibernating underneath, that would be a bit unreliable.

There was a thick layer of fallen bamboo leaves underneath, and no one could see any snake holes.

"Did you bury the snake there in advance?"

Seeing this kind of message, Li Xiang laughed and said to the camera seriously: "Don't always question whether I am a liar. I am not that boring."

"I don't believe it, you must be fooling us."

One fan made a bold statement: "If you really dig out bamboo shoots and snakes, I will give you a carnival!"

Everyone was in an uproar.

Is there anyone who is playing Carnival now? One Carnival costs 3000 RMB.

One person started, and many others came to support him: "If you really dig out the hibernating snake, I will turn you into a golden-scaled dragon!"

"Dig first, and I'll brush it after I dig it out!"

"Hurry up!"

"I still believe in Brother Xiang. Brother Xiang never cheats."

……

Under the urging of many fans in the live broadcast room, Li Xiang started digging.

He chose a location and began to dig the soil. Sure enough, a plump winter bamboo shoot came into everyone's sight.

This time, there were indeed a lot of winter bamboo shoots, and I dug three in a row.

"There may be seven or eight of them in a row!" Li Xiang dug along the direction of the bamboo whip, and sure enough, he harvested two more.

Then, Li Xiang gently dug another piece of soil.

As soon as the soil was dug up, Li Xiang could not help but take two steps back. The live broadcast room was silent for a while, but soon everyone became noisy again.

"Oh my god, there really is a snake."

"Not moving, definitely hibernating!"

"Look at the green skin and scales. This is a Pit Viper! A highly venomous snake!"

"It's quite thick and looks a bit scary."

"Brother Xiang, dig it out quickly, we want to see it!"

In fact, the reason why Li Xiang knew there was a snake nearby was because the system kept prompting: "A second-level mutant creature, the Green Scale Flying Dragon, has been detected."

I think it is a mutant of the bamboo leaf pit viper. Because this kind of snake is the most common in the bamboo forest, and the name sounds similar.

Li Xiang looked around the bamboo forest nearby and glanced up at the sky. If there was any, his sharp eyesight as a first-level transcendent would definitely have spotted it. At this time of year, snakes were almost dormant to survive the cold winter, so Li Xiang guessed that it might be next to the winter bamboo shoots.

Because the growing winter bamboo shoots will also emit a little heat, it is not surprising that snakes, which are so cold-fearing creatures, curl up next to the winter bamboo shoots to hibernate.

Li Xiang began to dig the soil around the snake, because only a small half of the coiled snake's body was exposed just now.

Even though they were separated by a screen, the fans held their breath and watched nervously.

Some people thought that it was really enjoyable to be in Brother Xiang’s live broadcast room and to see such exciting scenes.

Someone couldn't help but remind him: "Brother Xiang, be careful. If you wake the snake up, you'll be in trouble! Snakes also get grouchy when they wake up!"
